I have been battling with carpal tunnel syndrome on my left wrist. It started while I was around 20weeks preggers.

I have used everything - from deep heat to robb to aboniki. No relief. I even went as far as placing hot water bottle on the wrist all night - no relief instead I ended up with red inflamed skin.

Tired of all my DIY, I saw a GP. She said only solution was painkillers (something stronger than pcm and codeine) but I declined as I'm trying to avoid as much as possible taking any meds.

I went to another GP. He suggested I wear a splint on my wrist. Now, the splint provides very little relief, I hate wearing it at work and it makes sleeping uncomfortable at night.

Any solution please?

Hello. The thing about carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy is that different measures work for different people. Let me direct you to this site where you can try all the measures, and see if any works for you. http://brochures.mater.org.au/Home/Brochures/Mater-Mothers-Hospital/Pregnancy-Carpal-tunnel-syndrome

Fortunately, it resolves after delivery as fluid accumulation in the body resolves.

In my first pregnancy I suffered something very similar called de quervian syndrome. Everyone called in carpal tunnel but after spending hours reading up I diagnosed myself. Anyways Nothing worked. Went away a month after I gave birth.

Hang in there

Hello all. I am a professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology working in a University Teaching Hospital as an Obstetrician and Gynecologist. I am happy that Nigerian women are taking responsibilities for their health. I am willing to contribute by providing free Consultation online, so if you have specific questions, just ask me, and I will give you evidence-based advice. In the meantime I will be posting on what you should expect and do at each stage of your pregnancies here soonest. Cheers

Alemo50. Thank you for your gesture. My doctor says that my baby is small, and so that I will need c-section. I am now at 35weeks. He said my height of fundus is 31cm. And I did a scan which says that my baby is 32weeks. I am distressed. Please advise me

Cesarean section for small baby is never allowed in our practice unless the following 7 questions are answered in the affirmative.
1. Is the gestational age known? You cannot say a baby is small for date if the date is not certain. And you cannot say the date is certain if there is no early (ie before 26 wks) scan report to support it. LMP is unreliable in 40% of the time.
2. Was the measurement of the uterus valid? The measurement should be repeated, preferably by another doctor before saying that the uterus is small for date.
3. Has the ultrasound confirmed that the small size uterus is due to small baby? The estimated fetal weight MUST be less than 10th percentile in the ultrasound report before you can say ‘small for gestational age’ (SGA) fetus.
4. Is the SGA fetus small because it is not growing (IUGR – intrauterine growth restriction) and not because the baby just happen to have a small physique (constitutionally small baby). This is confirmed on Doppler of umbilical artery. It is reduced umbilical blood flow that causes IUGR. If the umbilical blood flow is normal, then the baby is small because of small stature and not because of IUGR, and you do not do a CS for a baby because it happens to just have a small stature.
5. If the umbilical artery Doppler is reduced but not absent, and a diagnosis of IUGR, has been made, has a growth scan demonstrated restricted growth? At least two weeks interval scans should be done to demonstrates that the baby is not growing. if during the two weeks the baby has grown at a rate that is consistent with a normal baby, then the diagnosis of IUGR should be reversed.
6. Is the IUGR severe? If it is not severe, then vaginal delivery with close monitoring is the best option. However, if non-stress test shows that the baby cannot withstand the stress of labour, then Caesarean section would be the best option.
7. If CS has been deemed the best option, has fetal lung maturity been promoted?

So you see that by the time these criteria are applied, you will discover that many of such CS for so called small baby, up to 70%, are actually unnecessary. The World Health Organisation has been screaming regarding the astronomically high rate of CS being performed these days. You can see that there are at least 7 stages at which CS for small babies could be unnecessary. At the stage 1 above, a woman could have given a wrong LMP eg if she had implantation bleeding and taught that that was her LMP, or the calculation of the EGA from LMP was errorneous, and this happens all the time in a busy clinic. Another error in level 1 is if the woman did not do an early scan, and the result of a late scan is being used. Scan in the third trimester can be wrong to up to 3 weeks, and by the time you add the allowance of 2 weeks that is normally allowed for HOF, you are getting a difference of 5 weeks, which would alarm most doctors.

At level 2, you will be amazed how measurement errors occur so frequently in the clinic. To understand what I am saying, the next time you are in the antenatal clinic, after your height of fundus has been measured, get another nurse to measure it again, and you will see what I am saying.

The third error is in the ultrasound estimation of weight. Again, error as much as 500g will occur even when a fetal medicine specialist was the one that performed the scan. So reliance is on Umbilical artery Doppler. And so on and so forth.
